Death from Prescription Drugs in America

Every day in America 35 people die from prescription drugs.  Since I began researching the prescription drug epidemic in America 3,035 people have died from prescription drugs.  I am keeping the death toll from prescription drugs in America and will be posting these deaths on this blog.  I am not sure how many deaths it will take for politicians to mandate all doctors to screen their patients more effectively to reduce these deaths, but now at least politicians will see the number of deaths their delay is having.
